12 Reasons Audrey Hepburn Is The Ultimate Fashion Icon

Wikimedia Commons

For a couple days now I have been obsessed with watching Audrey Hepburn's films. Though the plots of the movies are always interesting, I find myself looking at Audrey's fashion style. After watching Breakfast at Tiffany's I actually went to Forever 21 in hunt of her signature sunglasses. I found ones very similar and put them on as soon as I walked out the door.

Her fashion style is timeless. Especially now with vintage fashion coming back into style, we can all learn from Audrey Hepburn's classic style.

1. Her striped sweaters

A classic fitted striped sweater works perfectly with any solid color pant.

2. Her jeans

Audrey's high-waisted jeans with a black belt along with a bright red sweater simply proves how fashion is timeless.

3. Her sunglasses, hat and peacoat

These are the famous sunglasses I bought! Along with a staple red peacoat and furry hat this outfit looks perfect.

4. All black everything

A huge black hat and fitted dress looks elegant on everyone. Especially Audrey Hepburn!

5. All pink everything

This photograph is beautiful. I love anything with colorful flowers especially Audrey's contrasting light pink dress.

6. Cropped pants

The simplicity of Audrey's outfit may not be for some women, but I love it! Cropped and fitted pants are very in style right now and I just picked up a pair.

7. A summer day

Checkered Print? This is so in style right now which proves how much of an influence Audrey Hepburn had on the world of fashion. Even over 50 years from now we look at her sense of fashion.

8. Yellow yellow

Even Audrey's shoes match her dress? What could be more perfect?

9. "Roman Holiday" style

I think every girl needs a skirt as blue as this one.

10. Striped...again!!

11. Flannel style

Nowadays, everyone is looking for that perfect flannel.

12. Matching jumpsuit

I would pay a lot of money to have this outfit! She looks amazing.

If you're ever in a style funk I strongly suggest you take a look at any of Audrey Hepburn's old photographs or movies!

10 Little White Lies You Tell Your Parents In College

"Uh? Eating? Am I Eating? Yeah..."

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.

9 Reasons Your RBF Isn't The Worst Thing

RBF keeps you pretty #sorrynotsorry

University of Alabama Birmingham

Some Life

The infamous RBF is something I have and am known for. It’s kind of exhausting to be asked if you're okay all the time or being told to smile more. Girls with RBF get judged to be mean and rude much quicker than the girl who is always smiling. It’s true and just plain natural for someone who is generally smiling all the time to come off as more trustworthy and I've gotten used to it. I used to think that having a Resting Bitch Face was only a bad thing until I realized that just like anything else, it also has its perks. Having a permafrown with a piercing look comes with great power.
